Rule: multiply by 2 Pattern: 3,6,12,24,48 Observation: Observation = something similar about the numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

This numerical sequence corresponds to a geometric progression, which occurs when there is a multiplication of the sequence numbers for a common reason whose result will always be the successor number of the numerical sequence.

Like for example:

The common reason for the geometric progression is the number 2, so the first term of the sequence multiplied by 2 will be equal to the second term of the sequence and so on:

3x2 = 6

6x2 = 12

12x2 = 24

24x2 = 48

It is necessary to emphasize that the ratio of a geometric progression will always be constant and will always be a number other than zero.

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
